Job description

— Think Like the Attacker, Defend Like a Pro

The best way to know if a system is secure? Try to break it before someone else does. As a Senior Security Analyst, you'll bring an attacker's mindset to a defender's mission — probing for weaknesses, surfacing the risks that matter, and guiding the business on exactly how to close them before they're exploited.

If you live in a Linux terminal, get a genuine thrill from a clean proof-of-concept, and believe the best defence is a great offence, this one's for you.

What you'll do

You'll plan and run authorised red team engagements and penetration tests across systems, networks, and applications — simulating real-world attacks to expose weaknesses before someone hostile finds them. Working largely in Linux environments, you'll assess infrastructure, identify vulnerabilities, and map how a determined attacker would chain them together.

You'll turn findings into clear, prioritised reporting that both engineers and executives can act on — not just what's broken, but why it matters and how to fix it. From there you'll partner with the blue team and system owners to close gaps, retest, and harden the environment.

As a senior voice on the team, you'll help mature the organisation's overall security posture — refining methodologies, mentoring less-experienced analysts, tracking the latest attacker techniques and tooling, and championing a culture where security is built in, not bolted on.

You'll thrive here if you have

• Solid hands-on experience in security analysis, penetration testing, or offensive/red team work
• Deep, practical command of Linux — comfortable living on the command line and scripting (Bash, Python, etc.)
• A strong grasp of networking, common attack techniques, and how real-world breaches actually unfold
• Familiarity with industry-standard security tooling and frameworks (e.g. MITRE ATT&CK)
• The ability to translate technical risk into language the business understands
• A relevant certification (OSCP, CEH, GPEN or similar) a strong plus
• A sharp, curious, ethical mindset — you find the holes so the good guys can fix them

Why you'll love it

This is security work with a pulse. Every engagement is a fresh puzzle, your findings directly strengthen the organisation's defences, and as a senior analyst you'll have the autonomy to go deep, set the standard, and bring others up with you. Real impact, real challenge, and a team that takes the craft seriously.
